Abstract
Background: Mucins are complex carbohydrates secreted by various types of epithelial cells and glandular tissue
in many organs. Mucin's pathological expression has been implicated in cancer development and progression.
Diagnosis of adenocarcinoma is based on morphological appearance under light microscopy. Detection of mucins
may also help identify adenocarcinoma and poorly differentiated carcinomas.
